About this listen

Exploring the complexities of race relations in modern times, Jodi Picoult challenges us with ideas about justice, empathy and free will. Written with a raw honesty, this audiobook delves into deeply emotional issues about birth and death with an emotional fix that will stay with you long after the last words are spoken.

The new audiobook from number one best-selling author Jodi Picoult, with the biggest of themes: birth, death, and responsibility.

When a newborn baby dies after a routine hospital procedure, there is no doubt about who will be held responsible: the nurse who had been banned from looking after him by his father. What the nurse, her lawyer and the father of the child cannot know is how this death will irrevocably change all of their lives, in ways both expected and not.

Small Great Things is about prejudice and power; it is about that which divides and unites us. It is about opening your eyes.

A well crafted novel that gives a glimpse of what it's like to truly be a minority in every day life... It's not enough to say 'I'm not racist! ' we need to relearn how to 'act and be' in order to use that placard.

An exceptional book of hard truths
